[AJPulley]

Hello everyone. I'm AJ, I'm 32 and live on the Cape. I'm an electrician by day and I teach electrical apprentices at night. I have an 87 XJ I purchased about 12 years, two engines, three transmissions and four alternators ago. It's been from Northern Cal where I grew up, to Canada, to here, to Texas, back to Cal, then back to here. Hmmm... I think I'm at around 245,000 miles. It runs like a top, but has the ugliest damn color anyone can imagine,
-MID 80s BEIGE! :puke:
So, my goal is a coat of flat textured brown. It is undergoing some more upgrades to help make this happen- should be at 5/4.5 inches when finished, with a 44, 4.56s and a rear locker when I'm done, and I'm going to try some 34in Special Service TSLs... maybe by summer's end.

welcome aboard Daniel!!

[BOOTLEGGER]

Thanks Mike

[whatevah]

finally paid for my NAXJA membership last night... :)

got my 2001 Solar Yellow XJ Sport in May 2005, and it's still stock. Well, I added Rustys tow hooks and a Class III hitch+reciver hook and strap and a CB, but... :) The XJ is a Sport, but it's got yellow/black leather seats and some other options that must have been custom ordered by the first owner. 4.0, Auto, D30/D35, no ABS.

I've wheeled it a bit for being stock, and after replacing the only real trail damage last night (crossmember customization at Rausch Creek), it's back to running smooth and quiet. I replaced the factory tires with 225/75/15 Dueler Revos and love them. Taken it on blue trails (and one low black) and haven't gotten stuck yet. I get stuck mudding, but that's because I drop the diffs or the whole frame on the ruts.

A Rubicon Express 3.5" lift is in the future, but probably not until 2007 unless I get a significant income boost to pay for the lift, SYE, and new tires. Figure it's best to enjoy it stock until I can put on a good sized lift instead of throwing money at budget lifts.

welcome aboard Matt!!! looks like you practiaclly have a twin to my rig..

[XJflexer]

Hello everyone! My name is Tim and I am located in Richmond, VA. I have been interested in Jeeps (primarily XJs) for years, but I continued in the "car scene" until several of my co-workers took me wheeling about a year ago. That is officially when I knew I had to bite the bullit, sell my cars, and buy an XJ. After searching for a year, and almost settling on some clunkers, I finally found the rig I own today (purchased about three months ago). It is a '00 XJ with 52,000 miles on it. Although I didn't build this rig to its current standpoint, I am very proud of it. Here is a list of goodies:

*6.5" Rock Krawler long arm (this is the rig RK used to develope this lift...it's the gray '00 on their website under the 6.5" longarm lift)
*Antirock swaybar system
*Bilstein 5150 shocks
*4:10 gears
*lockrite lockers front and rear
*33X12.50 MTR
*Custom prototype RK front and rear bumpers
*7000 lbs Champion (Sam's club special) winch
*SYE
*Ron Woods driveshaft
*8 1/4 rear axle
*Dana 30 front axle
*Cut fenders with Bushwacker flares
*Rock Rails
*Revolver shackles

As noted above, this rig is the rig RK used to develope their 6.5" longarm system. I've only wheeled it three times, but I love this thing. I've never had a more enjoyable time in any vehicle I've owned.

I will be taking this rig to BigDogs at the end of this month to REALLY put it through it's paces with me. I crushed a factory front lower control arm bracket the weekend before last, so I'm just waiting for my Rusty's upgrades to come in. I also have RK lower control arm reinforcement/skids that I am going to try and use with the Rusty's units. I won't be crushing that again!

You didn't need to cut the lower contolr arm mounts when the long arm went in?

Will also be at Big Dogs Ice Breaker. Should see ya there.

When I moved back home from pittsburgh I was given this car as a graduation present...and I quickly started dumping money into it. I've only had the jeep for a few months now, got it back at the end of January. I didn't have a car in pittsburgh, so it was a well deserved present.

Not much really to say. I figured I spent enough money on my firearms, now I have to put some into my Jeep.

[notAdub]

Hey all, I'm Jeremy and new to Jeeps and wheelin'. I used to sell VW's and took an XJ in on trade so I snatched it up. Here are a couple pics of it last July 4th, my first day wheelin it is bone stock aside from the Thule rack.

http://myspace-946.vo.llnwd.net/00538/64/95/538725946_l.jpg

Since then I put a Rusty's 3" AAL and 30" A/T's on it. Nothing too crazy as my budget is meager and it is now my DD since I am selling my GTI. I also got a hook up from a good friend on an ARB front bull bar and a set of Olympic rock rails. Alos got a custom cargo box / sub box for the rear cargo area, and have some IPF replacement head lights and Hella 500's on the way.

I don't know a whole lot about it other than it is a 2001 5spd sport. I beleive it has the Chrysler 8.25 rear diff, power windows and factory fogs. And just found out my throwout bearing is bad, so time for a clutch replacement in the very near future i guess.

I'm itchin to do some more wheelin when ever I can, and hopefully will make some meet & greets / trail rides.

Here's a pic of my GTI for the hell of it

Hi,

I'm Dave. I'm in Huntington, VT. I have a stock 99 sport, and a lifted/thrashed ebay special 1996 sport. 34" Ltb's, powertrax in the rear, home fabbed front/rear rock bumpers, home fabbed rock sliders, revolver shackles, and roughly 6" of lift. I can't wait to leave this desert paradise(Balad AB) and hit some trails. :patriot:


Sorry, no pics at this time:badpc:

[creeperjeep]

im right down the street from you mrrbby, you arent with a medevac unit are you?

[mrrbby]

Nope. I'm with the 158th FW, VTANG. I'm working base fuels here as a driver. I just love being in a gated community, and still living in a single wide trailor.:laugh3: Actually, this really
isn't bad. I've lived in much worse conditions in the Marine Corps than what I'm living in now. I've got about a month left.
:cheers:

Oh, before I forget. I must give credit where credit is due. The bumpers and sliders on my jeep were fabricated by Damien Aube.

[mothy]

Hi - I be mothy

I have owned a TJ (95), two libertys(00,03), a GC (05) - all stock. Wife claims the last three are hers - but I paid for them, so I they are mine.

I recently sold my 03 Golf and bought a 92 XJ.

I moved from the midwest 18 months ago for a job in Boston - wife came too. Damn - Boston is expensive!
The cost of living difference is one reason for the sale of the Golf.

My XJ is a daily driver so it will get TLC initially and will get abused later. LONG list of wants/needs - always looking for a bargain.

I frequent here and JU .

Not sure what NAC is, but if it's new axle club, then yep, snapped it last week. replaced it with larger 297x axle and this time bought a spare to take with me. This was taken at The Cliffes Insane Terrain offfroad park in Marseilles, IL.

Hey everyone, been frequenting this site for awhile, just got around to doing some work to my rig. My name is Kerry and if I get my move from Indiana, PA to Latrobe, PA done in time I am really hoping to be a part of NACfest. Just as with probably everyone else my WIP has a 4" with 31 BFG muds, new LCA's and am looking to add front and rear tow points VERY soon, Powertrax for the 8.25 and some sliders. Always open for suggestions.

Hometown is Myerstown, PA (Lebanon County - next to Lancaster County) and I go to Ursinus College (Collegeville PA, near King of Prussia / Philadelphia). I have a '99 XJ SE, very stock at the moment, and as I'm a college student it will be a slow build. So far have 235 tires, rear hitch, and front tow points are in the mail to be installed. Going to Paragon on Saturday the 27th with a couple other near-stockers. I am always looking for someone with more knowledge than myself of learn from, let me know if you're in the area!

Hi All. I'm from Albany, NY. I'm a tech at a local C/J dealer:repair: . It's a '98, 4.0L, 5-speed. Not much into off-roading for financial reasons, but I like to keep it looking good and performing well. Not many mods, just a Hesco TB spacer and K&N filter. Now I'm looking into just 1"-1.5" lift shackles to adjust for the leaf sag. It's my DD so I'm looking for street and highway performance. Got a great sound system:woohoo: !

OMG!!! I never thought I'd see another XJ with those wheels on it! Very kewl.

I'm Dave from Canton, CT. I have a 99 XJ Sport with 4.0L, AW4, NP231, D30/8.25, K&N FIPK, 62mm TB and a Dynomax cat-back. I write Computer Aided Design software and am a volunteer firefighter. I bought my XJ mainly for responding to fire calls as it has plenty of room for all my gear and gets me through our New England snows. The only real off-roading I do is for fishing and camping with my 2 sons and the occasional brush fire.

http://www.datacad.com/dag/jeep2.jpg

PS: I know the tires suk, they are on the list to be replaced. Getting a set of Goodyear Wrangler SilentArmor 30x9.5's

[quote=CantonXJ]OMG!!! I never thought I'd see another XJ with those wheels on it! Very kewl.[quote]

Working at a dealer has it's advantages. When the XJ body was put to pasture, all the Mopar accessories went on a huge sale. It was first come, first served. I got the last set in the country for $24 a piece!:party:

[CantonXJ]

I paid $200 (shipped) for the set of 4 on eBay: unused and never mounted. At that time, there were only 3 left in the ChryCo system. I just picked up a spare off eBay for $35. I luv them and had never seen them on any other Jeep until your post. Nice color XJ too BTW. ;)

[MrWonderful]

Hola, my name is Steve. I'm in Hudson MA. I currently do not own a Jeep, but hoping to change that in the near future.

Hello all, My name is Jay and I'm in Harford County Maryland. I've been in and out of off-roading since front lift blocks were cool and 33"s were big.
I don't even have an XJ yet but as soon as I sell one of Grand Wagoneers I'm getting one.
Otherwise I have an 88 Grand Wagoneer totally stock and very nice that I'm selling to fund the XJ.
An 87 Grand Wagoneer with 4" lift, 33's, TFI, MSD, and a slew of Eldebrock stuff
A 78 CJ-7 that started as a bare frame that's about 75% done also with 4" of lift and 33's as well as a 4.0 headed 4.2 with a Clifford cam & Intake and a 390 Holley.
Aside from 4X4's Im also into old MOPAR muscle and hope to one day complete my 79 Li'l Red Express.

Nice piece, looks like you have a great base for building a serious trail beast. I have to ask though, what is that radiator hose-looking thing hanging underneath the front, laying on the steering....please tell me its not actually the radiator hose....I know how a work in progress is, but I had to ask...

Looks like your ready for long arms, those control arm angles are seriously bad. Also, score yourself at least an XJ D44 rear..., that D35 is very definitely your weakest link right now.

Looking good!!

[Billfaceeee]

I have gotten sucked into the XJ. The first week I bought it I'd already ordered parts from summit for it :) Always loved the jeep's, My freind recieved a 93ZJ from his dad with like 225,000 Miles on it, It then failed the CA smog test so they canned it and my freind bought his own 01WJ Quadratrac V-8, The second day he had it we got to drive to his Grandparents house just east of Yuma Arizona and test that limited slip in the sand..worked very well even on street tires. Anyway's I've done some light treading here, My grandfather own's a little quarry that's no longer in action so I did some 4x4 testing, It's a beast :) I did manage to get the XJ stuck...I was trying to drive up hill in one of his feilds a day after it rained..The front end managed to just sink right on in, then down to the axles hahah goodthing for 4x4 Difflocking Ford Tractors :) I'll post up a picture of thy rig..

Hi all,

I am Rock. My wife and I own Twisted Steel 4x4 in New Hampshire.

Here is my last XJ. It is an 89 with 6" of lift and 33's. Currently we have a 97 XJ that is still stock but I think that is going to change in the spring......

Hello all,

I just joined today, I have no problem with paying $35 for the tecnical information that I can get here. I currently have 5 Jeeps, but only one of them is an XJ. I have a small 4x4 shop in Southern NJ, where I do Custom Fabrication and repairs. I hope to see all of you on the trails as soon as I finish the XJ build.

Thanks,
Eric

[whatevah]

welcome aboard! thanks for supporting NAXJA, too :) what are you building your XJ for, DD, rocks, mud?

welcome aboard! thanks for supporting NAXJA, too :) what are you building your XJ for, DD, rocks, mud?

Well I just ordered a JD4 hydraulic bender for my shop and I'm going to put a tube frame under the XJ, then I've got a 5.7L Hemi with the 5speed auto and an atlas t/c to put in it along with a pair of Dana 60's with detroit's and 5.13's. It will be for rocks mostly, along with fabricating a full frame, I'm going to fab up an 8" long arm 4 link suspension to run 36" or 37" tires. I've got some ideas for a full cage with integrated tube steel flares and some body armor. My goal is to have it ready for next spring. I'll post some links to pics as I build it.

Very new to this site. I looked up as much as I could on the net ref the 60th anniv Cherokee. I am picking one up next week, great condition. Black with about 80K miles. Is this as "rare" as it seems? and Is there any particulars about the 2001's that I need to checkout?
Thanks from NJ

[whatevah]

60th edition XJs are fairly rare, were only 2,379 black anniversary models made. there's nothing special mechanically about them, aside from the 16" wheels, so you don't need to hunt for anything. the only things you'll have different from a regular XJ is the 60th stickers and floormats. the other options were all stuff you could get with a regular XJ. http://www.getahelmet.com/60th/info/60thback.jpg

So I've been reading this forum for a while but just figured out how to post. I'm in the lower NY area. Here's my 2000 in between upgrades. Ironically enough I've done most of these mods AFTER leaving Colorado, when I had miles of trails only minutes away. But I firmly believe there's still some good wheeling to be had around here...

Hello all, my name is Jeff from Amelia county, Va, and I am new here. I just Purchased a 2001 XJ. This is the 4th Jeep that I have owned (1) CJ7 and (2) Grands. I must say this sight rocks and ya'll have some killer rigs. My XJ is sporting a 4.5" RE lift, Trxus MT tires, Skid Row Diff Skid, Rock Sliders, AJ's Off Road front bumper with a Warn M8000 winch, Custom rear bumper, JKS front discos, 8.25" rear with a Lock Rite locker, Rustys Off Road K&N intake, CB and a Pioneer system powered with a Rockford Fosgate Amp. In the very near future I am planning on installing a Rustys Off Road SYE kit with a Tom Woods drive shaft, a Rustys Off Road 2.5" exhaust system, and a roof rack. I hope to meet some of you on the trail sometime. Thanks for the great site.

LOOKING for all help and pointers... PM if you can help

[hydrazee]

Hey,

I'm Matt from Lakes Region of NH. Have had our 96 XJ since 2000. I love it and it has saved my life and my little boy's life on three occassions. It's mostly stock (except for AirRaid intake, throttle body spacer, and performance plugs/wires). The last time we had an accident was in December...

Woman in a Lberty blows a red light and slices the bumper off and crunches my whole frontend. Everyone was ok, but I got to drive the XJ home with the bumper in th back... even the lights still worked!

Anyway, now we need to fix it. This time, we're going to upgrade. But I have never done anything except change the plugs, wires, and air box out. Never done any body work. Not sure about how to remove panels, best place to get used parts (Junkyards in NH?), etc.

So, glad to be here! Any help is appreciated!

Matt

Looking forward to meeting some of you guys in the future, prolly not going to make NACFEST but I'd deff be up for something more local as long as it's legal.

Hey, Chris here from Worcester, MA

Got a 1992 Sport a few weeks ago, it's got a 4.5" RC lift on it right now, but I'm going to be replacing that with an RE 5.5" LA Kit in a week or so, to run my 33" Mickey's :D

So far I ordered the RE 5.5"~7.5" Shocks, and some JKS Bar-pin eliminators. Next week I will be ordering my lift, and like 2 weeks after that, I will order my SYE/CV:roflmao:

Anyone else on here near Worcester? or in MA at all?

Hello,
My names Eric everyine calls me Doc though.
Been driving a CJ7 (golden eagle) For a few years now. Started looking for an xj as a daily driver and light trail wheeler for my wife. Had a freind find a nice stock 90 pioneer for a good price so i picked it up.
Anyhow its stock now hopefully not for long!

Oddly enough, I tried to register a minute ago, and whadya' know? I was already registered, heh.

2000XJ setup for SCCA NER RallyCross competition.

Rusty's airtube with 9" K&N, flowmaster 40 series 2.5" outlet, Bilstein HD shocks, Rusty's TB spacer, a bunch of lights on the front, yadda yadda yadda.

If anyone had seen it last year, it would have had 4 Hella's on the roof, a Thule roof basket, 2" lift with BFG AT's.

Now it looks like this...

Hi everyone...Erik here, from Newark DE. I've been a GM guy my whole life, but I've always wanted a Jeep. So I picked up a 1990 XJ last week. Great site you've got here.

[whatevah]

awesome! another XJer in my area. We've got a few lifted XJs in New Castle County, keep your eyes open. :)

[Reaper]

Nice...I've seen a few around over the past couple years and it's always been inspirational. Now I just need to get her ready for the trail...

[Reaper]

Here are some driveway pics from the night I brought her home:

Hey,
Rich here from Beverly Ma (north of boston).
Just got my first truck. 94 cherokee country. Green/Gold exterior w/ tan leather interior. Stole it from a use car lot for 850 dollars. Has a few problems but the drivetrain seems to be pretty solid. (especially for 176k).

Heres some pics from the day after I got it. These are some poser pics from some big rail road tie thats on top of a curb. LoL

It's been flopped on it's before, but that was back when it was lifted and whatnot, and not racing. So far in rallycross I've only had one near rollover, and that was either because of a broken rear shock, or the landing impact broke it.

As for having trouble with the Subarus, no, not really. In the last two races I've come in 5th in class out of 20 and 6th in class out of 13. Two cars with multiple drivers always ahead of me are an Audi A4 and an older Mitsubishi Galant VR4.

I'm getting faster and starting to catch up...the Jeep takes a little finese sometimes to get right.

Did you do the New England Forest Rally 2 years ago in Rumford? I remember someone put thier ride in a ditch, it was either an xj or an explorer. I couldnt get close enough to see it.

[88-xj-laredo]

Well I've been on here for a while, haven't gotten around to introducing myself quite yet though, figured I should.
I've had my XJ for a year and a half now, still not a part of any clubs but plan on joining one. I've got 4.5" of lift, cut fenders with TJ flares, a Custom 4x4 Fab winch bumper and a smitty bilt rear tube bumper, a lockright in the D35 and its sitting on 33x12.5 mud kings on AR tailgunners.
I also converted the closed cooling system to a open cooling system.
I love my Jeep :loveu:
I can't find any pictures right now, maybe I'll post some up later.
Hope to see some of you around!

I was there as a Rally America worker, but that wasn't me. It was a 4Runner, one of the sweep vehicles. They missed one of the narrow bridges and flopped onto their roof into a very small river.

http://farm1.static.flickr.com/211/447860005_3da67215c7_o.jpgThat prolly hurt, hope they were alrite. How much does it cost to enter these events and how much have you put into your jeep. Be careful with an intake like kn without a heat/dust shield.

They were fine.

A rallycross like what I race in, entry fees are usually $50-60 for non-SCCA members.

As for what I've put into my Jeep, not much.

Rusty's Airtube with 9" K&N
Rusty's 2.5" catback with Flowamaster 40
Rusty's TB spacer
Bilstein Shocks

Depending on the terrain, I run either Toyo ATs or BFG ATs. Thats about it for upgrades. Goes pretty good.

Thats the one, I only got close enough to see tires in the air. Hopefully get to go again this year, although the locals tend to complain when the rally guys hit thier brakes ;)

Hey everyone. I'm 18 from Rockland,MA.

First post, figured it was appropriate.

[kywanderer]

Hey, I'm Phillip from Barbourville, Kentucky. I have a 95 and my 17 year old soon has an 85. Mine is bone stock four banger. Just creeps around old logging roads and strip mine roads. My son is the reason I started visiting the forums. He blew his 2.8 (245,000 plus miles) and he decided he wanted chevy V8 power and some mild lift (3-5 inches over stock). Just been cruzing to get some ideas and guidance from the experienced crowd. You guys seem to have your ducks in a row around here.

[jcr23]

i've been lurking around a while now but never got around to posting here so... i'm john from washington, nj (warren county). i've got a 2000 xj, with RE 4.5", 31s, some skids, a rigid front bumper and some other stuff.

[father/son XJ]

Hello, Bob and Bobby (6 year old son) here from Ocean Co., NJ.
We have a LOW budget, 1989 XJ with Bronco coils and some S-10 springs in the back, riding on 31s. Other than that she is stock. Its a Father/Son project to get my son involved with Jeeps and to get him in the woods.

Plans are to trim the fenders and save up for 4.5 RE lift to get alittle more tire under her.

[billyjp2]

hey, i've been on the forums for a little while and figured it was about time to introduce myself. I'm from wilbraham ma and ive been building my xj myself and with help from friends. I put on a 4.5" RE lift and some 31" BFG a/ts for heres the before and after pics the moment. I replaced the smashed fender and grill with ones off a waggy xj. heres the before and after pics.

Hi
Picking up a 87 Cherokee for now as a grocery getter. My son in law has a 89 YJ. I live in North Reading Ma and spend a lot of time up in Maine. I do plan to replace the springs and not sure whether to keep it stock or lift it slightly.
